kmc-solid: Fix memory ordering in thread operations Fixes two memory ordering issues in the thread state machine (`ThreadInner::lifecycle`) of the [`*-kmc-solid_*`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support/kmc-solid.html) Tier 3 targets. 1. When detaching a thread that is still running (i.e., the owner updates `lifecycle` first, and the child updates it next), the first update did not synchronize-with the second update, resulting in a data race between the first update and the deallocation of `ThreadInner` by the child thread. 2. When joining on a thread, the joiner has to pass its own task ID to the joinee in order to be woken up later, but in doing so, it did not synchronize-with the read operation, creating possible sequences of execution where the joinee wakes up an incorrect or non-existent task. Both issue are theoretical and most likely have never manifested in practice because of the stronger guarantees provided by the Arm memory model (particularly due to its barrier-based definition). Compiler optimizations could have subverted this, but the inspection of compiled code did not reveal such optimizations taking place. |
